So this is one doozy of a deal for all you Chardonnay fans. Jason
Kesner is the right hand man (and assistant winemaker) to Steve Kistler
at Kistler Vineyards, as well as the former Manager of
Hudson Vineyards (one of the top Chardonnay sights in United States). He
also happens to be the proprietor of Kesner Vineyards and he is making
some outstanding Chardonnay. Only problem? It is made in minuscule
quantities. The Old Vines Chardonnay in 2008 was only 172 cases. The
2009 Rockbreak? Only 124 cases. 2009 Sandrift? 130 cases. Wines made in
such small numbers rarely ever leave California and almost never make it
to retail. That is why we bought everything we could get our hands on
when this deal came across our desk.
One quick search on Google for Jason Kesner Chardonnay will most likely
lead you to two conclusions. People are going nuts for these wines and
the $25 price point is insanely low compared to the marketplace. Great
summer drinking so get while the gettin' is good!

Our mention of low prices in the newsletter yesterday got us thinking.
Many of you know that we guarantee to offer the lowest prices in North
Carolina, but did you also know that we offer the lowest price in the
USA on many wines? That's right - there are many great wines here at
winestore that cannot be had for a lower price - not at Costco, not at
Total Wine, not online...you get the picture. So we are going to put
just about all those on the machines this weekend for you to taste!
Yes, it is possible to have incredible quality at incredible prices and
these wines are proof positive. Spanish Tempranillo for $6.99? You got
it. Napa Chardonnay for $12.99? No problem. $50 wine for $25? It's right
here. We get excited about wine. I mean, it's what we do for a living.
That being said, the thing that really gets us pumped up is amazing wine
that goes easy on the pocketbook.
So swing in on Saturday, try some wine, save a ton of money, and spend
some QT with your friends here at winestore (we love seeing you!).
As always, THANK YOU for your business!
It's Back!!
2011 Les Jamelles Pinot Noir
Regular Price: $11.99
Winestore Price: $9.99 (net)
We care deeply about low prices, and we
even have been known to let some of our best sellers go after the winery
insists on raising the price for one reason or another. That was the
case with Les Jamelles Pinot Noir late last year. This was our best
selling wine for our first 3 years until they decided this wine was
better than its $9.99 price tag.
Well, in our quest to deliver what you want at the prices we need (and
thanks to a 16% drop in the Euro / Dollar conversion rate over the last
12 months) Les Jamelles is back at the $9.99 price we know and love!
So this is to let all of you know, your favorite Pinot Noir is back, and better than ever!

2009 Flora Springs Chardonnay
Winery Price: $20.00 (Click HERE to see)
Winestore Sale Price: $12.99
SAVE 35%
This deal sold out in 24 hours and we just got another 56 cases in stock!
Let's be honest. We're having one of the hottest summers Charlotte has
seen in a long time. What better way to cool off than with a Napa
Valley blockbuster Chardonnay at 35% off! We have sold this amazing
Chardonnay in the past at the regular price of $19.99, but now we're
able to bring it back at our lowest price ever, $12.99 per bottle. This
very well may be one of the best Chardonnay deals we've ever put
together.
Flora Springs has a long tradition of crafting some of the most well
rounded wines coming out of Napa Valley. Their Napa Chardonnay utilizes
three of the best growing areas in the region, Oakville, Carneros &
St. Helena. Not too shabby...
We could go on and on about how great this wine is and how the winery
creates top notch wines, but why not come in and try it for yourself?
As always, we really appreciate your business here at winestore. If
you have any questions about our products please do not hesitate to
reach out to us!

2010 Southern Rhone Tasting!
Saturday July 21st
11am - 8pm
What top critics are saying:
"I place 2010 in the top three of my 40 years covering the Rhône, alongside the 1978 and the 1990"
- Decanter Magazine
"The southern Rhone's winning streak continued through the generally
outstanding 2010 vintage, with some estates having produced the best
wines I've yet tasted from them."
- Steven Tanzer's Wine Access
"I can’t remember a vintage so concentrated, powerful and rich that also has such zesty acidity."
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Featuring:
2010 Roger Sabon "Le Secret de Sabon"
2010 Roger Sabon "Rhone by Sabon"
2010 Marcoux Vieilles Vignes
2010 Marcoux Chateauneuf du Pape
2010 Marcoux Lorentine Lirac
2010 Giraud "Tradition" Chateauneuf du Pape
2010 Janasse Chateauneuf du Pape
2010 Janasse Cotes du Rhone
2010 Domaine la Garrigue "Cuvee Romaine"
2010 Giraud "Gallimardes" Chateauneuf du Pape
All of our 2010 Rhone order has finally arrived, and we will be putting
all the gems on the machine (at least the few that are left!) for you
to try this weekend. Yes we've had fun blind tastings, and yes we have
had fun Cabernet, Chardonnay etc. tastings - but we are here to tell you
that maybe only one other time in our 6 years of being open have we had
such an amazing lineup available to taste. These wines are the
all-stars of the Southern Rhone and we'll have wines anywhere from $14.99 all the way to $179.99 to try- so there is a little something for everyone.
The last several vintages have been very kind to Southern Rhone
producers, and yet the 2010 wines could best them all according to the
wine glitterati. Domaine de la Janasse, Roger Sabon, Domaine
Giraud and Domaine Marcoux in Chateauneuf-du-Pape are all the rage at
the moment among the critics, and for good reason. They make utterly
lush and delicious wines, and yet they are not wines that have sold
their souls (ya know, with high alcohol, over-extraction, too much oak
and the like) in order to get blessed from he-who-must-not-be-named.
These wines are rich and impressive, but they not only retain their
souls, they HAVE soul. Character. Personality. Whatever.
Maybe California Cabernet is your
thing and you just are not that into wines from the Southern Rhone.
Well, this is your chance to see what you have been missing. Maybe you
are a huge fan of Chateauneuf. Well, this is your dream tasting. If you
love wine, love good wine, love trying new things and love a good time -
you may want to swing by on Saturday. If you do not like wine, do not
like trying new things and do not enjoy a good time - this may not be up
your alley :)
As always, THANK YOU for your business and we hope to see you Saturday. The wines should be off the charts.

Charlotte based wine importer Eric Solomon is on a roll. Like, the guy
is just absolutely crushing it right now and we are super excited he
lives in Charlotte so we can get access to some of these outstanding
values.
We first tasted this Grenache last year and were blown away - I mean the
package, the taste, the price - it was a triple threat. Well, good
things sometimes take time in the wine business and it took a good long
while for this wine to finally show up. So this morning when it arrived
we were like kids on Christmas morning.
If you are into sub $10 awesome wine you might want to grab yourself
some of this bad boy. The most powerful wine critic in the world
recently said after tasting the Altes wines, "As I told Eric Solomon, at
these ridiculously low prices, consumers will never suspect the wines
are at this level of quality." We could not agree more...
So here we go again - more silly good wine at scary good prices from
your friend and neighbor Eric Solomon. I guess now when we drink some of
his Spanish gems we can really say we are drinking local :)

5 Liter Bottle of Niepoort Twisted!
Winestore Price: $110.00 (net)
Equivalent to $16 per bottle!
So yeah, we realize this is not for everyone :) That being said, we
ordered one of these 5 Liter bottles a few weeks ago and it sold in 15
minutes...so we went back and bought all they had.
So now we have 10 of these beauties, and they are perfect if you need
about 6-7 bottles of red for a party this summer. Bigger is always
better when it comes to bottle size (at least we think so) and these
things are super fun at parties!!

Spanish Superstars Tasting!
Saturday July 7th , 2012
11am - 8pm
Featuring:
2008 Ferrer Bobet Seleccio Especial
2004 Fincas de Ganuza Rioja Reserva
2004 Muga "Prado Enea" Gran Reserva
2010 Black Slate "La Vilella Alta" Priorat
2010 Honoro Vera Garnacha
2009 Capcanes "Mas Donis"
2009 Mustiguillo "Mestis"
2008 Borsao "Berola"
Some of you probably see this lineup and think "I have got to get in
there on Saturday and taste these beauties!" Others of you may just be
thinking "I just don't like Spanish wines". Well, this e-mail is for all
the haters. Spain is the third most prolific wine producing country on
the planet and they have devoted more acreage to vines than even
California. To put it simply, the Spanish are super serious about their
vino.
They are also serious about value. In today's marketplace, there is no
better place to get an amazing bang for your buck than in the Spanish
wine section. Mas Donis? $9.99 and it is absolutely crazy good juice. La
Vilella Alta? Under $20 for some lip smacking good Priorat. While the
value wines are amazing, the top wines are epic in their own right and
will give any of your California or French favorites a serious run for
their money. That is why we will be featuring wines like 2008 Ferrer
Bobet Seleccio Especial. One taste might very well shift your wine
drinking paradigm. Muga "Prado Enea"? This Rioja is a healthy blend of
powerhouse and traditional gentility, and is our favorite of their
entire portfolio.
Without waxing poetic for 3,000 words we
just hope you swing by and get your Spanish taste on. The wines are
always on our dinner table and nothing says beat the heat like a 68
degree winestore!
We hope to see you this weekend and as always, THANK YOU for your business!
2010 Black Slate "La Vilella Alta"
2010 Black Slate "La Vilella Alta" Priorat
Winestore Price: $19.99 (net) per bottle
Only 30 cases available
Any time Charlotte based wine importer
Eric Solomon creates a new project we pay close attention. When he
creates it with winemaking wizard Phillipe Cambie we pay double close
attention. When famed Priorat winery Mas Alta is involved we pay triple
close attention. So when wine critic Robert Parker jumps on the
bandwagon and goes bananas for this stuff things start to get out of
hand. Parker recently tasted with Solomon and stated:
"The following tasting, which was done in April, 2012, was one
of the greatest "value" tastings, if not the greatest, I have done in my
30+ years in the business."
His tasting note on La Viella Alta came with one interesting remark:
"Priorat wines such as this normally sell for over $100+ per bottle"
We've been loving on the Black Slate
wines for some time, but we just want to make sure you get to try this
one - it is pretty awesome juice for $20.
So ignore the hype if you want...all we know is we're buying cases for ourselves, and we think you should too!
Happy 4th of July!
